Age of Heroes, 10-game winning streak

Behind the feeling of being unhappy is actually the desire for happiness and peace of mind.

Both of these emotions exist in dreams, creating this delicate balance.

"Time may slowly wear away, but twenty years have passed, and we're still trapped in this nightmare day after day." The old man sighed, "That's why I was surprised by your arrival."

Bai Yu crossed his arms and asked, "How do we solve this?"

"How can this be resolved?" the old man sighed. "If a fifth-level cultivator could take action, perhaps this resentment could be wiped out, but..."

"No one wants to be torn apart." Bai Yu thought, "What about the water-walking ceremony? Isn't it a ritual used to appease the spirits of the dragon ancestors?"

"Once the water-walking ceremony begins, it will inevitably be released." The old man looked at the evil spirit and whispered, "But his obsession and pain cannot be erased so easily. With the willpower of the little girl outside, can she withstand it?"

"Could this be the reason why the last water-walking ceremony failed?" Bai Yu asked.

The old man shook his head and replied, "In the past twenty years, I have never felt my dream being shaken."

Never been shaken?

Does this mean that the last water-walking ceremony was meaningless?

Or is it that Ao Xuanyue’s qualifications are simply not enough to touch Long Buping’s resentment?

The conversation reached a deadlock here.

Bai Yu found that he had no good way to deal with this evil ghost.

Long Buping, who is at the peak of the fourth level, has a deep obsession.

How to erase his obsession?

It is very difficult to let go of a dead person. He has lost too much, and everything he has lost can never be recovered.

Thinking of this, Bai Yu felt a little angry, thinking that the Tyrant was really a piece of shit.

Suppress the ten directions——!

You deserve to die! Ah!

Bai Yu nodded between his eyebrows. Although this question was unsolvable for others, as long as he could weave his destiny, there might be a chance.

After all, the only way to erase obsession is to fill those regrets in his life.

Time waits for no one, the water-walking ceremony is about to begin.

"How should I get out?" Bai Yu immediately asked the old man.

"Kill Long Buping completely in the first dream." The old man replied, "That's very simple."

Bai Yu whispered, "Will there be any consequences if I kill it?"

"It will wake up."

"Ah, this..." Bai Yu said with a headache, "I encountered a fourth-level ghost king once before. His ghost den was quite powerful and made me suffer a lot. This time, if the Dragon Country also becomes a ghost den."

If Long Buping's evil spirit awakens, how can we fight it if there is no fifth-level master in the entire Dragon Country?

If they cannot resist, the entire Dragon Country will end up like the Origin Palace, full of monsters.

"So what if there are consequences?"

The old man smiled and said, "You guys have to go out eventually, don't you?"

"Besides, this nightmare has lasted too long, and it should have ended long ago."

Bai Yu clasped his fists and said, "Your idea of ruling by doing nothing must resonate with the peaceful and tranquil Emperor Jiajing."

Doing or not doing is one thing.

How to deal with the follow-up after it is done is another matter.

Doesn’t always looking forward to the wisdom of future generations prove that our predecessors were incompetent?

The old man raised three fingers slowly.

"Why?"

"Three days."

"what?"

"Three days have already passed outside. Time flows differently in dreams and outside." The old man smiled and said, "I believe the ceremony has already begun. If you delay for another day, it will probably be over by then."

Bai Yu widened his eyes, and the word "MMP" was about to come out of his mouth.

He held back, believing that he was a well-mannered person who didn't swear.

The old man urged: "Aren't you going yet?"

Bai Yu walked towards the courtyard gate. As he crossed the threshold, he turned back and asked, "If no one can stop this Ghost King, Dragon Country will cease to exist. Wouldn't it be too tragic for it to destroy everything with its own hands?"

"Perhaps this is also the result of its desire." The old man sighed desolately, his hands behind his back. "If everything returns to death, nothingness is emptiness, and emptiness is peace of mind."

Bai Yu understood that the old man had wanted to be free from the very beginning.

Even if he really knew something, he wouldn't tell me.

"I won't let this end."

Bai Yu's voice was deep, because he didn't like this ending.

He walked through the gate and disappeared in the white light.

……

Returned to the interior of the ancestral hall.

"Is this a dream?"

"Yes." Bai Yu looked at Long Jianquan and repeated, "The only way to get out is to kill this body that the evil spirit is inhabiting."

Long Jianquan grabbed his wrist and squeezed it hard, causing it to ache slightly. "Have you thought about it? Do you know what the consequences will be?"

"We have no choice. It's impossible to deal with it in the dream. Only by leaving can we have a chance." Bai Yu said: "Or do you have a better idea?"

Upon hearing this, Long Jianquan slowly loosened his grip and stopped insisting.

"We've been sleeping for three days, and the world outside must be in turmoil." Bai Yu took precautions: "We'd better be mentally prepared."

Long Jianquan remained silent, just gritted his teeth and nodded heavily.

Bai Yu swung his fist at the rotten corpse.

It was like a layer of dust, easily penetrated and then dissipated.

It was like a yellow talisman that had been eroded by time and could be easily peeled off with two fingers.

But no one knows what kind of horror is hidden under the seal that has been opened.

Bai Yu didn't have time to think about it. He heard the sound of collapse. The dream was collapsing, and he was waking up.

……

Bai Yu suddenly felt a slight tingling in the palm of his hand.

Open your eyes and wake up.

In the palm of his hand, he tightly grasped the 'mysterious fang'.

It was the culprit that caused him to fall into a deep sleep, and Long Jianquan, who was relatively close to him, also fell into disaster.

He was lying on the bed at this moment, and the three days of sleep did not bring much sense of unfamiliarity.

Bai Yu jumped up with a somersault, picked up the clothes beside him and put them on, then pushed the door open and walked in.

Less than two seconds later, Long Jianquan from the next room also pushed the door open and walked out.

The two looked at each other.

"No one's here..." Bai Yu opened the information terminal: "As expected, three days have passed. According to the time, the water-walking ceremony has been held for one day."

Su Ruoli couldn't stay away while he was unconscious.

The fact that she was not around to look after him at this time indirectly proved the seriousness of the situation.

Bai Yu tried to dial the number: "No signal."

Long Jianquan stepped on the ground with his toes, stretched his height, and tried to overlook the Dragon Country, but all he saw was a large area of black clouds and darkness.

"Miasma? Sea fog?"

Without changing his judgment, he swung his palm through the air. The violent palm wind swung out hundreds of meters, tearing a gap in the dark fog, like a marshmallow being pressed down, but the expanding fog around it quickly rolled in and filled the gap.

Bai Yu looked at the palm of his hand, and his formal attire moved.

The demon slayer was reminding him that the fog was poisonous.

"It's demonic energy... and it's a fog of extremely high concentration of demonic energy."

"Damn it!" Long Jianquan's expression was very ugly.

Having a Ghost King transformed from a peak fourth-level transcendent is already troublesome enough, but there are also high-level demons lurking in the Dragon Country, and they launched a sneak attack while they were sleeping!

These two disasters combined together...even ordinary cities in Daxia are likely to be destroyed. How long can the current Dragon Country hold on?

"Someone realized the internal bomb in Dragon Country a long time ago and deliberately detonated it at this moment..." Bai Yu paused, "It was all calculated."

Long Jianquan said: "What should we do now?"

He asked the question deliberately, not because he couldn't make up his mind, but because he thought Bai Yu's words were more valuable for reference.

Bai Yu said, "I'm thinking."

He turned on the information terminal.

In the past few days, there were several missed calls, some from Qin Xuezhao and Mu Yaoxi, some from Kong Wen and Ruan Qingxue, and the most missed calls came from that number.

What he was checking was not the missed number, but the message.

Once you lose contact or the phone is unreachable, you will definitely receive a message.

Of course, Su Ruoli might also answer the call.

He flipped through it quickly and soon found the information column.

"——I can't contact you. Is there something wrong over there?"

"——I still can't get in touch with you. Take this as an admission that something's happened to you. I'll arrive as soon as possible. I hope it's not to collect your body."

"—Whether you can see it or not, I need to remind you of three things. The one who could cause you to fail would most likely be a high-level demon. This type of opponent is the most difficult to deal with. Not only do they possess all the characteristics of a demon, but they also possess a crucial rationality, making them even more difficult to deal with than a species demon."

"——Demonic beings possess rationality, making their movements more difficult to predict. We've spent years hunting down demons and demons, and we've roughly figured out their patterns."

"—If you remember what happened where we first met, you should understand what these demons need."

"——Anyway, don't die before I get here!"

After reading the message, Bai Yu closed his eyes.

The last message was sent a day ago, so it was obviously still some time before the other party arrived.

There is no time to wait.

Bai Yu said, "Let's go to Longyuan. The source must be there."

Chapter 384 Anyone who stands in my way will die

In the heart of Dragon Country, surrounded by three mountains, there is a place called Longyuan.

In the distant past, this place was where the dragons imprisoned criminals because it was extremely deep.

Later, this place became a holy place for the dragon clan.

It was foggy and visibility was poor.

Su Ruoli walked carefully on the plank road on the cliff, always keeping an eye on his surroundings.

The entrance to Longyuan is located halfway up the mountain, and there is only one accessible road along the way.

With her strength, she could have flown directly on her sword, but the risk was too high, so she chose to walk step by step.

The closer you get to Longyuan, the stronger the feeling of unease becomes.

Along the way, I didn't encounter a single living person, but I did encounter two or three demonized dragons...

They were all killed by her.
